Relax. Many people would call Docker/Kubernetes, and various types of databases like CockroachDB as systems. Lot of enterprises call large internal applications as "systems" There is no copyright on "systems programing" and it can be used only for OS kernels and such.
- codeflo 5y agoWhile I agree it's probably not worth getting angry about, I would agree with the GP that the word "systems programming" traditionally has a meaning that's different from "programming things that might be called systems". What you're describing is often more simply called "backend programming".
- azth 5y agoIn that case, Python is also a "systems language", but you don't see people claiming it as such.
